G-Banded Karyotype and Ideogram for the North Atlantic Right Whale (Eubalaena glacialis)
Published cytogenetic data for extant cetacean species remain incomplete. In a review of the literature, we found karyotypic information for 6 of the 13 tentatively recognized species of the suborder Mysticeti (baleen whales). Among those yet to be described is the critically endangered North Atlant...
